PERFORMANCE TIPS

Swing 8th notes

Basically:  All 8th note combinations are played like a Quarter note/8th note Triplet combination.

Like This:

swing - Copy1

The Swing 8th Note also applies to tied 8th Syncopations like this:

syn tie02

and Syncopation notated like this:

sync102

A flat, sharp or natural sign in parentheses (   ) means that the flat, sharp or natural is already in the key signature   But if you had been playing an accidental on that note for a while it’s a courtesy reminder that you now need to play that note according to the key signature.
